You are missing a lot !!!!!!!!!!

If we don't hold politicians accountable for their actions what are we ?
Mindless saps that deserve to be screwed over?
Too late that's already happened.
My point is that impeaching Bush is hardly worth calling "holding accountable." It would be like giving someone a $5 traffic fine. Would impeaching Bush really make a difference to him? At best it would give the appearance of punishment. Kind of like all the phony security measures put into place post 9/11 that do nothing but look important.

And yes, I do think from a cost/benefit perspective if it's too expensive to prosecute (benefit much less than cost) we shouldn't do it.
